Yes
I had a blast this evening, a fly on a rose, a hovering flying insect and spiders getting their prey.
First chance to try the Sigma 150 front of lens add-on. I think this will be better for bigger insects but I still like what I captured tonight.
Pleased for a first attempt. Early days but I like the results and hopefully they will get a tad batter with practice.

The flying hover fly is very good :)

They are hilarious fun, you have a few seconds to get set, then they suddenly zip off 2 feet left/right/up/down, and then you have find them again and start over !
I had a few frames of nothing when it literally zipped sideways as I pressed the shutter. Quite a challenge :)
